SEM Through Dielectric Membranes: Secondary Electron Contrast Reversal
Recent advances in electron microscope fluid cell design have enabled imaging of samples in aqueous environments and have provided a platform to perform in-situ crystallization experiments as well as electrochemical studies [1-2]. However, the actual SEM imaging contrast mechanisms when imaging through the dielectric membranes of this type of fluid cell device remain unknown. In these experimen...
متن کاملCharging Effects on SEM/SIM Contrast of Metal/Insulator System in Various Metallic Coating Conditions
Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and scanning ion microscope (SIM) observations were performed to investigate the charging effect and the related contrast variation for images of conductive and non-conductive specimens under electron and Gaþ ion beam irradiations. The contrast variation in the specimens was investigated by changing the coating conditions. It was found that the contrast in con...
متن کاملAtomic number and crystallographic contrast images with the SEM: a review of backscattered electron techniques
Backscattered electrons (BSE) are incident electrons reflected back from a target specimen and imaged with the scanning electron microscope (SEM). Three distinct BSE signals exist: atomic number or Z-contrast, in which composition determines image contrast; orientation contrast, in which specimen crystal structure determines image contrast; and electron channelling patterns (ECP), which are uni...
متن کاملContrast of Backscattered Electron SEM Images of Nanoparticles on Substrates with Complex Structure
This study is concerned with backscattered electron scanning electron microscopy (BSE SEM) contrast of complex nanoscaled samples which consist of SiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) deposited on indium-tin-oxide covered bulk SiO2 and glassy carbon substrates. BSE SEM contrast of NPs is studied as function of the primary electron energy and working distance. Contrast inversions are observed which prevent ...
متن کاملA 200-kV STEM/SEM Produces 1 Å SEM Resolution
Introduction “Second best no more” was the title of an article written by David C. Joy for Nature Materials [1]. The article was for highlighting a breakthrough made by a team formed between Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL, USA) and Hitachi High Technologies Corporation (HHT, Japan). Sub-angstrom secondary electron (SE) images were obtained on a Hitachi HD-2700, which is a combined scanning...
